LIFORECAST

Now and I've got some more lights to hang up. I'm gonna wait a couple of days. You're gonna have to wait. You may have to wait until next week. Sunday and Monday, we're gonna have some strong winds, especially on the South Shore. Could be looking at winds where it's near 50 MPH. Yeah, that's or secure them down real good. And we're gonna be watching before we get to that stormy weather, cold weather conditions out here for this morning. Take a look 26 in Smithtown. Our friends in Bay Shore, 3031 and Hempstead. Good morning, Valley Stream at 32 degrees. 32. Right now, I'm on talk 29. Currently in Bridge Hampton. We have a wind right about 10 MPH right now and that's making it feel even colder to start off. Our day. Wind chills are in the twenties, low twenties, 20 right now in Islip. So getting out to work this morning, the bus stop, kids waiting, bundle up, it's cold. We do have some in the clouds now, but it will become mostly cloudy. Look at the snow showers out to the west. This is what we're watching now, it approaches Long Island. It kind of weakens so we can't rule out, uh, a stray rain or snow shower for today. Otherwise it's more clouds and the big story now is cold. Look at our temperatures around 145 or right around 39 to 40. We top out to a high of 41 3 o'clock. Same thing, mostly cloudy skies, chance of that passing rain or snow shower. Now, at 445 the storm of Hanukkah Sun goes down. Now, at 425 generally dry, we're looking at some clouds. Temperatures, mid thirties into the overnight. We're ok. Temperatures starting out Friday morning, thirties, Friday afternoon, forties, mid to upper forties, warmer weather starts Friday and in the rain right now, late Sunday afternoon, rain and then Sunday night and Monday morning, moderate to heavy rain and the potential of strong damage in winds, potential of 40 maybe 50 MPH wind gusts along the South shore. So you'll have to secure your Christmas decorations and anything else that can blow around forties for today, for your high, that chance of a rain or snow shower into your afternoon thirties tonight with partly cloudy skies again, warm on Saturday, 55 rain and warm Sunday into Monday morning. Ok.

Police: Car crashes into Chopt restaurant in Woodbury

92823LICARCHOPT5

This scary scene in the Woodbury Commons shopping center off Jericho Turnpike in Woodbury. A car crashed into the restaurant chopped around lunch time. Look at that damage there, as you can see, just shattered glass everywhere. We spoke to a customer who has actually said he was eating his lunch in his car and saw the whole thing happen. A good Samaritan came in, made sure he was in park and took the keys out. I was gonna do it. He jumped ahead of me to do it. I was like, thank God because I was still in shock that I didn't get hit because I'm just chilling, eating a salad without my seat belt on. Wow. Well, we are told here's another look at the damage. We're told that no one was seriously hurt. Thankfully.
